Jennifer Lopez Calls Marc Anthony Split 'Tremendous Low'

In a new interview with People, Jennifer Lopez opens up about her split from Marc Anthony and the turmoil that followed.

"I went through a tremendous low," Lopez, 44, tells People. "But I wouldn't change anything [about my past] because it made me who I am."

Lopez and Anthony ended their marriage in 2012 after nearly eight years.

"As women we can sometimes give ourselves away," says Lopez. "I was certainly guilty of that for some time. Now I realize I am good on my own, so now I can share my life with somebody."

Today, Lopez is sharing her life with boyfriend Casper Smart. The couple has been dating for two years, but Smart isn't the only love of Lopez's life -- her six-year-old twins Emme and Max have also stolen her heart.
